A New School Year

Fifth Grade...The last year of elementary...I'm not even sure how we got here.  The theme of change continues.  For the first time, the kids are not in the same class.  Baylor has his own classroom this year by choice.  Delaney and Jax chose to stay together; honestly, since they are in advanced reading and math, they are pretty much forced to be together most of the day.  The truth is they don't mind.  Also, the kids now get up and ready for school without me hovering.  Truly my kids have always been pretty good in the mornings.  They have adapted to their new routine and taken on the responsibility of getting ready on their own.  So far, fifth grade is proving to less labor intensive on the homework side and they seem to be really enjoying school.  I am very proud of them.
